In this paper, we proposed microwave treatment (MWT) to obtain low power consumption transparent volatile memristors for reservoir computing and successfully demonstrated highly transparent and stable volatile memristor characteristics for ITO/TiOx/IGZO/TiOx/ITO structures. In addition, we found that increasing the MWT time and compliance current (CC) can reduce the device’s volatility, indicating that our device could potentially adjust its volatile behavior. Based on this result, finally, with four consecutive input pulses, we successfully discriminated 16-4bit states, demonstrating the potential of our device as a reservoir computing (RC) system. These results show that MWT seems to be a good method for transparent volatile memory (TVM) study for RC system application because it can control the volatile characteristics of the device over time and has the advantages of low power consumption.
